Seoul

May 2015

Shinhye aka Eunsang sat in the coffe shop in the middle of business disctrict in Seoul. She had an appointment for an interview in Jung Enterprises at 10.00 in the morning for position of The CEO personal assistant. But here she was in the coffee shop on the opposite of Jung Enterprises at 8.00 in the morning enjoying her coffee and a piece of donut. Yes, she did not want to be late for interview because she has been in Korea for 2 months and she needed the job badly. Her money will not last forever. Though Mr and Mrs Cha would gladly cover her expenses until she got back her possession, she would not want to be a burden for the old couple who had done many things for his father and her. She had tried to apply job for other companies and she even had tried to work in one of the company, but the location was too far so she could not continue to investigate her father company and her step uncle. She worked for 2 weeks when she decided to resign and apply to other companies.

She was not the old Shinhye people knew. Her hair was not wavy brown anymore but straight jet black hair which she collected in a french twist above his head. Few strays of hair covered her right side of her face. Her brown eye was now jet black, thanks to softlens magic, and she put a glasses on top of it. She covered the mole above her left eye with concealer. She dresses like normal working girl in a black pencil skirt and white blouse accompanied by 5cm heel shoes and black handbag. Her eyes look smart but cold and full of calculation. No more lovely, cute, jovial and smart Shinhye anymore.

Once she reached Busan 2 and half months ago she changed everything about her. She changed the way she walk, the way she talk and her attitude. She made herself like common people instead of an heir with high class attitude and groom. She even learned a basic judo for self defense until now as Mr Cha suggested. She changed her accent like a foreigner, which is not too difficult for her, since she lived in Europe since her high school graduation. No one would connect her with old Shinhye now, except those who are really closed to her. She always looked around her surrounding cautiously. This became her new habbit since she was in her excile. First because she was afraid if she would be found out by her step uncle men, but now she found it usefull for her because she could pay attention to the people around her and she knew when something alerted her to leave the place. She also learned about people behaviour around her.

She looked at her watch and it was 9.30, when she decided to go straight to Jungs Enterprises. She looked around the place and walk to the door when a man who was talking in the phone walked in without looking at the way and crushed her. Her bag which was not closed properly fell down and all her belongings were scattered out of the bags.

‘I am sorry Miss. I did not saw you walked out’ The man helped her gathering all her belongings and she just put all her belongings inside her bags and said ‘It’s OK, I did not pay attention well also.’ She needed to be hurry otherwise she might be late for an interview. She looked at the man, bowed a little then leave the coffee shop immediately straight to the Jungs Enterprises building in the opposite of the coffee shop.

The man finished his phone talking and walked to the coffee shop counter.

‘Ice Americano for take away please.’ He said          

‘Ah, anyonghaseo Yonghwa ssi. A cup of americano in process, Any other you’d like to have?’ the barrista girl smiled behind the counter.

‘That would be sufficient for me. Thanks.’ Yonghwa handed over the money and shifted to the waiting area.

Shinhye walked to the Jungs Enterprises building while thinking that the man she crushed with was quite familiar but she did could not remember who was he. She went to the receiption counter and inform the receiptionist that she has an appointment with the HR manager Mr. Choi Junghoon. The receiptionist asked her to go to the 7th floor. A girl met her and introduced herself as Juniel asked her to wait for a while cause Mr. Junghoon was still in a phone meeting with some department head. After waiting for about 20 minutes, the secretary ushered her to the HR manager room.

‘Good morning Ms. Eunsang. Sorry that you have to wait. I am Choi Junghoon, the HR Manager of Jungs Enterprises.’ A handsome young man introduced himself in a polite way.

‘Good morning Jonghoon ssi, I am Cha Eunsang. Thank you for sparring time to meet me.’ Eunsang replied.

‘Please sit down.’ He continued then start opening a file in front of him.

Eunsang sit on the seat in front of his desk and waited for Jonghoon to start the interview.

‘Please tell me about yourself and why you think you are capable for the position.’ He started the interview.

Eunsang started to introduced about herself, her working experiences and how she would handle the job if she was appointed. Thanks to Mr. Cha acquitance that he could provided her with an overseas school of buisness certificate under name of Cha Eun Sang. She felt guilty though using a fake certificate and she hope that nobody checked it thoroughly. The reccomendation letter she got from Mr. Cha was also quiet convincing and The Jungs HR manager impressed with Eunsang explanation about herself. Well, this one was not a fake experiences she told him because she was accustomed to helping her father running the business when she was in holiday. Se knew the business very well because her father always shared with her all the business activities while she studied overseas and she gave her father some business advises also.

After the interview finsihed, Choi Junghoon informed her about her job description, when
